Review @ Techgage | GeizhalsWhen looking back over our experience with the TEW-631BRP, the most important thing that we kept coming back to was the price. Intending to compete with the bigger home networking companies here in the states, the TEW-631BRP can be found online for around 65 dollars. Clearly these are priced to sell and in talks with TRENDnet, they have moved a lot of them into the retail channel... encouraging news indeed.
The performance of the TEW-631BRP was solid as well when compared to that of a regular 802.11g connection. In the coming week, we will be releasing our review of TRENDnet's flagship router, the TEW-633GR gaming router. This router included 4 gigabit ports on the back and is positioned quite well to compete with the D-Link DIR-633. We have been examining the performance differences between both TRENDnet routers as well the D-Link so stay tuned.
Getting back to the TEW-631BRP, it's priced so well that it might make sense for many to upgrade that old 11g router you have at your house to a router such as this one from TRENDnet. In all honesty, this seems to be where TRENDnet is aiming their pricing scheme.
The more homes they can get their products in the better and for those in the market for a simple and easy to use Wireless N router (regardless of how ugly it actually might be), the TEW-631BRP from TRENDnet should get your consideration on your list of routers to look at. For the price and performance, the TRENDnet TEW-631BRP earns an 8 out of 10.
